Hi I'm sort-of still new to the Drupal scene, not quite a noob.
Built a few sites now but still looking for some constructive criticism

http://www.discoverrock.com is my new baby.. can anyone have a look and lemme know?

We're trying to set up an efficient system but I think it's too confusing the way it is.

Using CCK types: Artist, Album, Audio(module) each has custom views
Aggregating myspace gigs with feedburner.
Done a lot of CSS theme tweaks with the Zen theme.

being honest, the theme is a little too dark for me. the med blue font against the black/dark blue screen is a little hard to read.

Hey so I've now completely redone many aspects of this site and I'm once again looking to see if anyone can give me their constructive criticism now that the site's been going for some time.
http://www.discoverrock.com

I'd be more than happy to answer questions regarding audio and panels.

which of the site did you use panels for?

Panels is being used on rockdiamond.net, just as a three column mini-panel on the frontpage.

http://www.discoverrock.com has a node override panel page with different layouts for each main content type:
Artist, Album, Audio - each with related content referenced using nodereference fields.
Each of the artist pages are meant to be landing pages, with links to all that artists content and links back to the artist node.
Then the frontpage also has it's own layout, showing a summary of the sites newest content.

How exactly did you work up the audio previews for each track on the album page? I am trying to figure out how to accomplish this on my own band's site.
